In May, we released an update to our search algorithm to better support these types of searches. Now when searches are performed which contain decimal characters, you should get far more accurate results.

Speed Increase to Instant Search Dropdown

Additionally, you’ll notice the instant search dropdown is a bit more speedy this month as well. We removed some data that wasn’t being used very much in user queries so the tool has far less data to sift through when creating matches.

As a result, the instant search tool is much quicker, and is now focused far more on Series and Part Number results, which are the vast majority of our searches. You’ll still see some keyword and keymatch results in this area, but we’ll mainly leave that to the “All” tab of the search results page.

The way our users search continues to evolve, especially as we continue to add more and more data and product documentation. Keep an eye out for these upcoming developments on Samtec.com:
